Question 7.3: An amplifier with negative feedback applied has an open-loop...

Electronic Circuits Fundamentals and Applications

An amplifier with negative feedback applied has an open-loop voltage gain of 50, and one-tenth of its output is fed back to the input (i.e. β = 0.1). Determine the overall voltage gain with negative feedback applied.
